CNN Money’s response? ETF’s such as SLV or SIVR (notice Sprott’s PSLV is not included), silver certificates- essentially own paper silver in any way or form as long as investors avoid actual physical silver bullion like the plague.

Someone at MSM/CNN must need to unload a bunch of paper...remember every fall needs a buyer, ie, fall guy who's buying....the only paper I'd be buying is stocks..mining that is...the juniors are set to rise...

Definitely not made for this world--at least not this century.

...you are dangerous to everyone---not because you are ungifted, but because you embrace evil with your teachings. In so doing, in trying to be kind, to be unselfish, in trying to be nonjudgmental, you allow evil to become far more powerful than it otherwise would. You refuse to see evil, and so you welcome it among you. You allow it to exist. You give it power over you. You are a people who have welcomed death and refuse to denounce it. You are an empire naked to the shadow of evil. Terry Goodkind, NAKED EMPIRE

SURE ....buy paper silver NOT real silver! Great advice ...just great fucking stupid ass advice! When there is 50 paper ounces to one physical ounce!

pretty much. Hey sucker, get in at the end of the latest ponzi scheme!

You can still make money with paper silver. Sure, if you buy into the whole TSHTF scenario (or even if you don't) by all means stash away some physical. Personally I don't think the S is gonna HTF at all, but still have some physical as an alternative to keeping thousands in the bank as an "emergency fund".

However, for buying dips and selling high paper is the way to go. I haven't done it, but looking back over the past few years one can see that it would have been possible to make a bunch of money just by watching the markets, paying attention to Fed announcements, etc.

Someone needs to make an algorithm that takes all the MSM BS and does the opposite with a delay to let the sheeple first invest then short before the banksters so you can get higher returns then the bankers.

Neither will silver, people will be trading in stuff they need like food and salt.

I've always imagined during a situation such as when SHTF, if I had food stockpiled, someone may come asking to trade my food for their silver bars.

And I then try to imagine what use I will have for silver bars when SHTF..

Hopefully you sell your silver right when it peaks to buy useful items before TSHTF. The point is that you trade your silver... not except silver for trade.

First you trade to the banksters for anything you find of good use. Then, when they're out of the picture, you take what you have leftover and put it to good use.

Colloidal silver will be worth its weight (in silver) when the antibiotics run out.

Also from a metal smith perspective, pure silver is a pleasure to work with. Silverware got its name because the antibacterial properties of silver are superior to any other metal. "Born with a silver spoon in your mouth" used to refer to good health while you were growing up.

Silver will be about as worthless as cash if a true SHTF scenario happens. At least right out of the gate or until a new monetary system can be put into place. The only things that will hold value in a massive collapse will be things that have an actual use. Things like medicine, food, alcohol, drugs, batteries, fuel, etc. will be currency. Not some worthless metal that has no actual use.

But worry not, that level of collapse will NEVER happen.

You sound like you have loads of Life Experiences under your belt to know exactly on how and what it will be like when it goes down, thanks.
